Messina - Circonvallazione a Monte

A very attractive panoramic road begins with the name Viale Italia to the west of the university and continues under varying names (Viale Principe Umberto, Viale Regina Margherita) westwards above the city, following the course of the old fortifications, and ending in the north on the coast road. It skirts the Botanic Garden, the rebuilt Santuario di Montalto and the votive chapel of Cristo Re.
